The Changing Landscape of Cybersecurity:
How it Protects Your Company

There has never been a more crucial time to examine cybersecurity for critical infrastructure, most of which is privately owned. According to MIT experts, over the last twenty-five years, presidents from both parties have paid lip service to the topic while doing little about it, leading to a series of short-term fixes they liken to a losing game of “Whac-a-Mole.”

This scattershot approach, they say, endangers national security. A new report warns of hacking risk to electric grid, oil pipelines, and other critical infrastructure. “The nation will require a coordinated, multi-year effort to address deep strategic weaknesses in the architecture of critical systems, in how those systems are operated, and in the devices that connect to them,” the authors write. “But we must begin now. Our goal is action, both immediate and long-term.” Homeland Security Newswire, April 2017 (http://www.homelandsecuritynewswire.com/)

Join us for a thought-provoking panel discussion on the current state of cybersecurity and the emerging growth companies and deal opportunities poised to take advantage of the profit from various solutions.
